But, for me, the biggest contributing factor was actually Enrique Iglesias.

Side note: I also came outta the womb flaming.

You see, growing up gay, I always appreciated Enrique's arms.

I appreciated his general being and aura (I'm really into vibes lately).

I could ignore his tragic/insane early 2000s style because he would do this thing where he randomly lifted his shirt exposing his torso.

Really, early 2000s fashion was awful but, excuse me while I get poetic, beneath it was beauty.

Yes, even in this bucket hat I WOULD.

BUT REALLY, it all started with the "Be With You" and "Escape" music videos.
